Some B cells also turn into plasma cells, which serve one purpose: to create antibodies, including the provoker of allergies, IgE. In order to cause an allergic reaction, a certain amount of IgE ...

Additionally, the researchers examined the molecular switch that underlies flexible memory formation in these cells. They learned that this switch acts on the key memory regulatory gene Tcf7 ...

Memories can form outside of the brain, according to new research. Non-brain cells exposed to chemical pulses similar to the ones that brain cells are exposed to when presented with new ...

Research shows in real time how immune memory cells are stored in the bone marrow. Download PDF Copy; Reviewed. Reviewed by Emily Henderson, B.Sc. Oct 28 2022.

For years neuroscientists have focused on the brain’s neurons as its principal creators of memory and thought. But what if the reason for our cognitive abilities isn’t in the electrical activity of ...

As a postdoctoral fellow, Martinez-Gonzalez investigated the memory potential of another innate immune cell, type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), which are activated by interleukin (IL)-33 and play ...

Highlights: Learning and memory are not functions of just brain, other cells also have memory; Memory can be retained for a longer when learned in a spaced-interval manner ...

For many years, astrocytes were seen as simple support cells in the brain. Today, that picture is changing fast.

This form of muscle memory occurs because when you first build muscle, your body adds new cells to those muscles. But when you lose muscle, those new cells don’t disappear, as previously thought.

A new machine learning model shows that star-shaped brain cells may be responsible for the brain's memory capacity, and ...

A measles infection feeds on these memory cells. Vaccines, in contrast, stimulate the production of memory B and T cells without consuming others in the process.
